Ahh. Same guy who heard him say mean things to the other team and questioned his character or something?

I vaguely remember that discussion a while back

But since he went to Ga he was completely accurate and Mays would have been a cancer in the locker room. Whew! Lucked out missing him!

I’ll be surprised if Thompson plays WR too. Word here was that Muschamp thought he could be special at CB. Think once practices start Pruitt will see the same thing

He's already listed as cb only and has the same number as another wr, while Taylor is listed as cb/wr.

Thompson is cool with being a DB. Tae wants to be a two-way player. But both are needed more on defense this year. We're solid at WR, and next year, we'll have Keyton.

Thanks Newt-- didn't watch any HUDL until now... hopefully we find another to go along with this guy. Having two stud WRs would make a big difference/threat in how D's line up against us in the future...

We got WRs for days on our roster...I don't think they are beating the bushes for 3 WRs...unless its Curry or a blue chipper we haven't heard about.

Thompson just looks so dynamic with the ball in his hands. If he’s playing DB I hope he gets opportunity as a returner.

100% been working out with Fitz's plan. Guaranteed.

Yep. All signees met with the coaches and were given target weights and recommended weightlifting programs so they could arrive on campus ready to assimilate. Peterson has been working out with Propst all spring and summer and he's bulked up.

What are the chances Peterson starts the WVU games

What are they wanting him to bulk up, to? Has any word gotten out to which position they want him to play?

Looking at the team talent composite ratings from 247 for our past three seasons suggests that prior to last year under the former staff we'd generally win about 80% of our games where we have a talent advantage.

Our notable losses after 2016 included Dobbs, Hurd, Kamara, & Malone on offense, Barnett, Sutton, & JRM on defense. We've also been pretty injury prone over the last couple of years.

Last year it was extrmely challenging for us to manufacture any offense or to stop the run on defense.

I'm thinking we will have a talent advantage this year in perhaps 9 of our games. WVa last year had a team talent rating between Vandy and Missouri.

I suspect if we don't at least go bowling this year Pruitt may get hammered and go looking for someone to fight.

Our players didn’t come here to play skool.

Our coaches didn’t come here to play church.

Both came here to kick some ass and take names.

I used to “preach” this all the time to Vol fans when Richt was at UGA. But, most VOL fans would blast me if I said anything negative at all about Reverend Richt. I was called anti Christian for ever saying anything about how he used religion in recruiting. Same went for Hugh Freeze and we saw how that worked out. The best Christians (and best people) I know live their faith and values without having to brag or use it as a tool to achieve ill gotten gains.
Richt did this to Pruitt and many others in his career.
Ask any SANE Georgia fan and they will tell you that.

FWIW, the VQ guys in one of their podcasts a few weeks back thought he’d announce who they’re going with in his first game week press conference.


Who knows though. WVU having little idea what exactly our offense will look like will be one of the few clear advantages we have in that game, so maybe he tries to maximize that advantage as much as possible.

If you happened to of watched the coaches version of the NC this year, Holgerson was one of the panel coaches. He was talking about bamas defensive scheme, etc., and said he's dreading facing it the first game of the season! Albeit, not the same jimmy and joes, but the scheme is scary!
